How it works
When a user navigates to an unfamiliar link, the Paranoid Web Extension transmits pertinent information—site URL, icon hash, and page title—to its dedicated API for real-time analysis.
Data processing occurs in fractions of a second, preempting user errors by swiftly identifying potential threats. Upon detection of a suspicious element, the extension proactively blocks the page, simultaneously issuing a hazard alert and advising on the next steps.
Paranoid Web Extension is capable of identifying and blocking recently established malicious sites, even those as new as a couple of days old, that could be requesting your credit card information. In the rare instance of a false positive, users have the option to rectify by clicking the Report an Error button.
Bad Reviews Alert
The Paranoid Web Extension is a tool that monitors websites for negative feedback from external sources. As you browse the internet, it keeps track of any adverse reviews or complaints associated with the sites you visit. If you land on a site that has a significant number of complaints or poor reviews, the extension will promptly notify you, ensuring you're informed before you continue exploring that site.
